Hi Fire and Ice,
Thanks for your kind words again, thought I would attach a colour pic, as the others werent black and white and the other colour filter are a bit more flattering though, and I really dont think I will be identified from the pics - I dont wear glasses at all but they are great for keeping the hair of my face, and hiding slightly overbushy eyebrows! But if anyone does recognise me then at this point I am really not very bothered.
Also thought what the hell I might as well change my user id as well since I now feel like Megan is slowly taking over when she can although this does mean I have to work harder on preserving male mannerisms and body posture a lot more - I think it was walking like a woman towards the checkout that did for me on Monday - I just went into autopilot cause I wanted to get out of there and unfortunately Megan decided she wanted to take over on the walk to the till.
I keep looking at the my pics from yesterday, I still cant believe its me at all which is both a nice feeling and terrifying at the same time, because I never thought facially I would be passable or at least not look male but I fear thats just going to encourage more feminization as Megan slowly takes over! It sounds similar to your dichotomy without the added complication of a spouse or partner.
My weight loss is the one thing I have sorted even if it feels like everything else is up in the air. Have managed to drop my weight from about 310 lbs down to about 260 in less than four months, I have a target of 200lbs which I am aiming for at the moment. That will possibly take the rest of the year, at the current rate of progress although I havent been that weight since about age 14 (although apparently I had the skeleton of 18 year old then due to rampant growth hormones) so I might be too thin for my frame - and Id like to have some curves!
t the present I am just taking it day to day, I do feel better for both posting the pics on here and a bit more about me and coming out to a really good friend - I think I had too much bottled up not to tell someone and I know he will be discrete about it in the meantime.
Megan
P.S There is a really good story behind why my mom wanted to call me Megan if I was a girl, and why the name just seemed to fit me, but Ill save that for another day/post/thread!
